Inkspirational - Colour Challenge - Anything Goes With Silver

Happy Saturday everyone! It's a lovely mild day here in Jemseg, New Brunswick. We've had a pretty nice fall if a bit rainy. Hard to believe that it is November already. Before you know it Christmas will be here. I know, I know, you don't want to hear it. LOL. Well, how about hearing about a challenge instead? We've got a new one over at Inkspirational and it's a great one for getting those Christmas cards done. It's a colour challenge and it's anything goes with silver.

My card today is another one for my Christmas card stash. I need about 7 more cards to be done. I would have been done sooner but my Mom wanted some for her so my stash took a bit of a hit. :-) Anything for my Mom though. Here's my card...

I decided to use a NBUS stencil (STAMPlorations) for the main part of my card. I masked off the top portion of my card, put my stencil on and sponged on metallic silver ink (Color Box). I removed my mask and adhered some houndstooth patterned washi tape (Recollections) and a trimmed piece of teal glitter tape (Recollections). I die cut a snowflake (Echo Park) and added a pink iridescent rhinestone and attached it to my card. Love the pops of colour with this card.

Well, I hope you'll come on over and play along with us. You should definitely check out the Ink DT projects. They always deliver! Plus, we have a fabulous Guest Designer too. Kathi of My Creative Therapy joins us and has created a fantastic card.

I came 'this close' to using the same stencil...and then realized I had no idea what to do next, so headed in a different direction! Now, seeing your lovely showcase, I can return to the drawing board! Soooo pretty; your mom will love this, as do I. Seriously - only 7 more to do? I'm impressed - I've only done maybe 7! Yeeps!Hugs~c

I have to admit that I initially thought you had done a bit of heat embossing. BUT then it turns out you've used a stencil and silver ink to create this look! WAUW is what comes to mind! As always a fabulous card, Kim :)Yes, anything for our Moms. Well, they'll do anything for us, so it goes both ways ;)

About Me

I'm a SAHM just trying to stay sane by any means possible. I will pretty much try anything crafty. I have a B.A. In Fine Arts and specialized in painting. I have tried my hand at many types of arts and crafts like, stained glass, lithography, scrapbooking, rubber stamping, cake decorating, and much more. There are a lot of things I still want to try. I would have to say that my two favourites are card making and painting.
